Chiropractic Care
Quality of Life is Dependent on a Healthy Spine
Did you know that healthy spinal bones, tissues and nerve flow depend on normal spinal motion and alignment? The scientific term for a deteriorated spine and nervous system condition is called vertebral subluxation complex.
A spine that has lost its segmental motion and alignment is not only inflamed but demonstrates ongoing decay of the joints, soft tissues and altered nerve flow.
Specifically, spinal dysfunction alters sensory receptors called proprioceptors that respond to changes in movement and alignment, and nociceptors that respond to damaging or potentially damaging stimuli by sending signals to the spinal cord and brain. When this happens, the following can result:
- An increase in stress signals
- A decrease in growth and healing signals
- Changes in our neuro-hormonal states
- Pain
Restore Your Quality of Life
Through the use of specific adjusting techniques, chiropractic effectively corrects subluxation patterns and restores and maintains function, while helping to create comfort, strength and endurance as it relates to spinal mechanics. At Forest Chiropractic Wellness Centre, our goal is to help you feel better while paving the way for a healthy future.
We use a combination of state-of-the-art techniques and lifestyle interventions that are scientific, ethical and evidence-based for optimal results, including:
We Cater to Your Preferences
Most of our clients prefer low force, “non-cracking” techniques that allow Dr. Keith to apply gentle force to specific segments of the spine without having to contort the body. Some clients prefer manual techniques. Regardless of your preference, we always address the cause of the problem and focus on restoring spinal health, function and integrity – with emphasis on client comfort and safety.
